ABSTRACT This introduction to the Special Issue “Human-Animal Relationships and Welfare in the Anthropocene: Pandemics, Climate Change, and Other Disasters” provides the reasons for creating the Special Issue, its aims and scope, background on the subject area, and an introduction to the papers within it.
